Family after death: You can stay (Book 2)

Chapter 7

To say that Jisung is nervous is an understatement, here he is on his way to speak with his father for the first time in at least five or six years. He nervously plays with his sleeve while Chan drives towards the park where Jisung will be meeting up with his father. At first Jisung's father had wanted to meet up at his own place but Chan disagree with wanting to meet in a public space just in case something were to go wrong. If there were humans around, then hopefully Jisung's father wouldn't try something too bad.

"Ji why are you levitating my coffee can?" Chan looks to the side slightly, checking up on Jisung. He had seen that his coffee can started flooding through the mirror.

"I'm not?" Jisung looks up at Chan with a confused look on his face. Chan just points to the back, having to focus on the road. Jisung follows Chan's hand, eyes widening as he sees the flooding can of coffee. He quickly drops it, luckily the can doesn't open and spill all over the backseat.

"Careful Ji. I guess you're nervous about meeting your dad?"

Jisung nods his head, frowning. "Yeah, I haven't seen him in like five six years and from what I remember neither of us were very uh nice to each other."

Chan hums, from what he has heard from YoungK Jisung had a fight with his father about a year before YoungK took him out of the place Jisung was staying at the time. After doing some research the fight seemed to be a big deal but he never asked the boy what it was about. Chan never asked Jisung to open up about his past only listened when Jisung had nightmares and needed to tell someone what happened in them. Chan had no idea of what Jisung saw in his nightmares were memories or things his mind made up to scare him.

"Ji, you said you had a question for him? What is the question?"

"I want to know what happened to my mom."

Chan stays quiet, feeling slightly stupid how he never questioned where the boy's mother had been. Jisung never talked about her so Chan had just slightly assumed he didn't know her.

"All I want to know from him is to know what happened to her."

"So you agreed because you want answers?"

Jisung nods his head, watching as Chan parks the car at the park.

"Ready to go Jisung?"

Jisung nods, unbuckling himself and jumping out of the car.

Chan watches Jisung slowly walk over to his father, who is sitting on the park bench.

"Jisung my boy, look at you all grown up." The man stands up from the bench when he sees his son walking over to him. Jisung takes a deep breath, trying to figure out what to call the man. He hadn't really seen the man in six years and he honestly considers Chan more his dad than the man that is standing in front of him right now.

"Hello father?" Jisung keeps a straight face, not wanting to show his father that he is very nervous about this whole meeting.

"Let's sit down shall we? That would make it more comfortable to talk don't you think?" Young-Soon, Jisung's father, sits back down on the bench patting the spot next to him for Jisung to sit down. Jisung frowns, slowly walking over to the bench and sitting down. He makes sure to keep some space between himself and his father, not wanting to be too close to the man in case he needs to run.

"How have you been my son? It's been a while since we last spoke."

"Good."

"I heard you left TCMA a year after we last spoke, it shocked me to hear. I didn't expect you to become a run away."
